Gipper’s message:
What is love?
1 Corinthians 13: 4-8
“Love is patient, love is kind. It is not jealous, it is not pompous, it is not inflated, it is not rude, it does not seek its own interests, it is not quick-tempered, it does not brood over injury, it does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.”
What do we need to do?
John 15: 12-13, 17
“This is my commandment: love one another as I love you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends…This I command you: love one another.”
Not only this Valentine’s Day, but every day keep love in your heart. Seek the good in everyone. Avoid hate.
Aye,
Gipper
